I absolutely loved this book. Chinese folklore, an incredible protagonist, great characters, and a fun plot made for a wonderful read.
I am hoping this becomes a series. and hope if it does the humor continues. Genie Lo discovers she needs to fight some demons when a new kid moves to town; their relationship current and in the past is original, and I loved learning a bit about Chinese folklore. One legend deals with Guanyin, and coincidentally I saw her statue in an art museum in Baltimore, while reading the book. She is truly an interesting deity.
If you enjoy Rick Riordan books, and want to learn a bit about Chinese folklore, this book is for you. Even if you don't enjoy those books, you will enjoy this as it is aimed for an older crowd then the typical Riordan series is.
